    Anyone else have the feeling this story might be another nothing burger, along the lines of this one?

    Hey man, laugh all you want.

    But, I assume you're also laughing at any suggestion that Trump's rhetoric might drive someone to carry out violence too, right?

    Again, you are blaming the murder of a police officer on "the left" with no valid evidence simply because you need to demonize everyone who disagrees with you politically. I am consistent. I never lump all people who disagree with me politically together that way and I certainly wouldn't try to pin a murder on them.

    You can't properly support the claim that the murder of the police officer is "left-wing violence." You are just tossing it out there as fact with nothing close to acceptable evidence. It is yet another example of your refusal to hold yourself to the standards of evidence you expect of others and in this case, it is particularly disgusting.

    Pretty detailed story.

    We've got Think Progress citing Haaretz, citing a statement from Jewish leaders in Poland, that offers no specificity:

    According to the statement’s authors, “ever since the fall of Communism in 1989, all U.S. presidents and vice presidents visiting Warsaw had made a point of visiting” that site, representing Americans “who had played such a central role in bringing down Fascism,” at a “universal commemoration of the victims of the Shoah, and condemnation of its perpetrators.”

    Great reporting guys.

    Misogynist defending a misogynist. Not a surprise.

    Dude, you hang out on a board of sports journalists, which is like a self proclaimed feminist supporting Donald Trump...

    Oh wait; that is is you. You are a know nothing hypocrite who is too dumb to realize it.

    Using Rick Perry's economic theory, they should just print more papers to drive up demand and profit.

    That's my problem with the way that was written. It's clearly a threat, and frankly not much better than something the President would have tweeted. (It's amazing that sentence is a pejorative, but well ... )

    A board full of nothing but sports journalists would suck.
